Hubpages - A Writing Platform You Can Make Money
November 27th, 2007 | Published in Making Money | 29 Comments
Hubpages is a multi user writer platform where you can create hubs (similar to blog posts) and publish. The first question you will ask is “Why should I publish my articles in Hubpages instead of my own blog?”
There are numerous answers to that. You can (and should) use Hubpages if you are an amateur writer or a blogger running your own blog. There are other platforms similar to Hubpageslike Squidoo and Helium. I don’t like the money system used in Squidoo (At the end of the article I explain how Hubpages arranges the money) and Helium isn’t as popular as Hubpages. You can see on the Alexa graph that Hubpages has an increasing visitor trend.
I have chosen Hubpages because I am blogging about blogging and there are many other subjects I would like to write about. I discovered Hubpages at that point. You can check on my sidebar the Hubs I have published which are all on different subject. I can’t start a blog on each topic I will only write for once, in Hubpages you have the freedom to write on any topic and the Hub gets categorized for the related topic.
The out-most feature of Hubpages is reaching a large community. I have my own blog BloggerDollar and I know the effort spent to gain an audience. In Hubpages you don’t have to spend an effort to drive traffic. Hubpages is already high-ranked by Google and you get the privilege to write on a high traffic site. If you look at my stats you can see that my visitor count is going up and I’m doing that without any effort. As you can see from my traffic sources most of my traffic is from organic search engine traffic.
The Hubpages uses a royalty system which differs from other systems. You submit your own Google Adsense, Amazon and Ebay ID’s and your own ads are shown %50 of time. You can trace your own statistics by submitting your Google Analytics code so you can track your account. This is a huge difference from other platforms because you get your money from Google or Amazon or Ebay which is the most reliable method. You can also make money by using the referral system. (If one hubber signs-up through your account you get %10 of ad displays for his page but he/she still gets %50 so you get the extra amount from the Hubpages) If you are interested in writing you can sign-up.

The quickest way to start receiving targeted traffic to your link is to advertise it on a few pay per click search engines. Try Google and Overture first since they are the most popular. I personally have had more success on Overture than Google. Once …

i believe that the best way of making money online is still monetizing your blog with Adsense or Adbrite. my income from blogging is still low but i am working hard to get more readers.
